The Iowa State Fair. I've never seen such a high concentration of old white men. (at Iowa State Fairgrounds)

More Chicago. "You fund this war boys, and someday we'll have fancy high rises to park our cars," said Washington. "What's a car?" asked Morris. "Never you mind, Robert," replied Washington. "Never you mind." (at Heald Square)

Hey Chicago, it's nice to be back.

Here is a throwback to a time when I couldn't get enough of Photoshop. Interestingly enough, this photo got me my first job at an ad agency. The creative director liked my work, and coincidentally had a strange fascination with toilets. Years later, I ended up buying him an old toilet that I painted to look like a Dr. Pepper can. We called it the Dr. Pooper.

Throwback to when I was 13 and thought I was Parker Lewis. #tbt

Rachael found this gem today while packing. This was my name tag when I worked at Borders Books and Music almost 17 years ago. I was in charge of the video department. I remember these amazing new things we started to sell that held not only the movie, but special features and even different languages you could choose. They called it DVD.

Waiting for bats. Last night I was downtown trying to film the bats leaving the bridge. They never came out. Never seen that happen before. (at Bat Bridge)

Too cool for school. Last-day-of-school picture of our brood. Sometimes, people say a picture is worth a thousand words. This is one of those times.

War is a no good, terrible, very bad thing, but an unfortunate reality in our world. Thank you to those who have served, both to those alive, and to those who have passed. And here is to hope, that someday war just be ancient history. (at USS ALABAMA Battleship Memorial Park)

Late night diner with my bro. Watch out Vegas, the Penman brothers are on the loose. You'd better hide your ice-cream and/or frozen yogurt. (at Brio at Town Square Las Vegas)

That's some fancy carpet I'm standing on. Shooting interviews for IBM at their #IBMEdge event at the Sands. (at The Sands Convention Ctr.)

In Vegas for a shoot. For whatever reason, the Venetian Hotel put me in a suite. It's too bad my wife isn't on this business trip, or we could have had a seventies-gaudy-themed-second honeymoon. It's not actually that bad, but it sure photographs that way.

#nofilter needed. Looking for gators in Louisiana.

You will be missed. I'll see you later, Destin. It's been nice. (at On the beach at Destin Florida)

I might have misapplied my sunblock. It looks like I have vitiligo. A very painful case of vitiligo. This is what happens when you use spray sunblock.
